I think the memory leak was caused by
http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/7d20e30bd540 because
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/0eedac3d0b0a/Python/import.c#l903 sets
the 'res' variable and then overwrites it unconditionally w/o PY_DECREF
beforehand.

not controversial to say that most new Python code is still being

Given that Python 3 downloads now outnumber Python 2 downloads, I think

Fixed! (test_site and test_functools are still leaking sporadically,
but it looks unrelated to the import.c leak).
